Every year Amazon celebrates another year of being awesome by offering up some pretty sweet deals on a wide verity of products. The event known as Prime Day will kick off at 9 pm ET on July 10 and run until 3 am ET on July 12.

Deals Every 5 Minutes

Amazon says the event will feature hundreds of thousands of deals exclusively for Prime members around the world, with new deals activating as often as every five minutes. Shop Prime Day 2017 Deals

Everything including toys, shoes, and Kindle e-readers were sold during last year's Prime Day. Amazon says that more that 90,000 TV's were purchased during the event, and that the Fire TV Stick was the best-selling Amazon device.

Get App Notifications

If there is something you want and you don't want to miss out on getting it at a killer price. Download the Amazon app and add the item you want to one of your wishlists. If/when it goes on sale the app will send you a notification.

Amazon Prime Free 30-Day Trial

While Prime Day features deals that are exclusive only to Amazon Prime Members, non-Prime Members can sign up for a 30-Day free trial to get in on the deals. Try Amazon Prime 30-Day Free Trial

Prime Day Alexa Exclusive Deal

This year there will be another set of unique deals that will be exclusive to users who make purchases through an Amazon Echo, Echo Dot, or another eligible Alexa-enabled device. While these devices are likely to be on sale during the Prime Day event, it might be worth it to purchase one ahead of time just for the exclusive deals they could unlock. If worse comes to worse, you could always return the device if the deals turn out to be underwhelming. For $49.99 you can get the Echo Dot or the Amazon Fire 7 Tablet.

Prime Day $10 Credit

One way to get ahead on the saving is through a special $10 credit that Amazon is running right now. Users that stream a Prime video for the first time on a TV are eligible for the $10 Prime Day credit. Learn more here.
